They had one in stock. They don't have any more but say they can order one. I bet they can't.

16" bar, 63PS chain. $500. plus tax.

You guys are a bad influence.

. Perfect match to go with your 026's.
241 and 026 are what I usually take to the woods unless i have big logs to cut. I think mine woke up around 7-8 tanks.

 

[gcdible1]

So they were $440 w/16” til the dude got fired, and now are $450 or are they $500?

I called my dealer to see what they have left. The fella I used to buy from has been fired, and the cheapest I can get them now is $450. They only have 7 left.

 

[ferris076]

Yeah, and the 241 is claimed to be 9.9 pounds. But someone here showed that it is actually 10 pounds 10 ounces?

Maybe the old version of the 241.
They change them some years ago
3 hp—>3,1 hp
4,8kg —>4,5 kg

Called my local dealer, doesn't have any but says he can get one, which probably isn't true. Full retail price.

Told him I have to figure out exactly how many ounces lighter it is first.

How many ounces lighter than what?

 

[DSW]

A 261 with half a tank and a 20 inch bar, silly.

I just sold a brand new/never used 241 with a 2014 build date. Side by side with my 550, the 550 is more compact....550 has more powa too.


I really wanted to keep the 241 but didnt see myself using it over the 550 since they're so close in size. Now I'm wondering if I screwed up, never even used it.

Stihl may be changing designs regularly to keep ahead of the Chinese cloners...

I'm telling you its a lot lighter and more maneuverable! You don't need a scale run them side by side! One is fantastic for limbing the other is better for blocking

Oh well......that's where I was getting confused. I thought you were talking about 3/4 of a tank of gas.

What'd you do? Buy it to flip it and make some money?

OK so far man it has a lot of pulling power.

Yes, I'm quite sure. I test drove a new one over a year or so ago. I wasn't pulling anything though. Just my seat-of-the-pants impression, it was a real go-getter.

I wish I could justify buying a diesel, but I can't.

I know lol. I like them both though.
